“You bribed Nancy who’s working for Yara?” Jacinta asked, shocked.

“Yes, Granny. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to get tonight’s setup done by myself.”

It would be difficult for Winnie to do all the setup, such as the blood dripping from the ceiling and the door that was locked from the outside, in a short time, without the help of Nancy.

It was ridiculous that Yara thought Nancy was loyal to her, not knowing that she had to live every day in the terrifying atmosphere that the latter created for her.

“How did you do it? Isn’t she loyal to Yara? How could she be bribed so easily?” Jacinta’s curiosity was piqued.

Winnie flashed her a faint smile. “Money is all we need to deal with people like Nancy. There’ll surely be an amount that satisfies her.”

Jacinta lamented, “Really? I guess money does make the world go round. Ha. People can really do whatever they want with it. Money makes one better than the rest and can buy love and life.”

As Jacinta spoke, her voice became less audible, and what she said sounded strange. Winnie even thought that she had heard it wrong.

“What did you just say, Granny?” Winnie felt that her grandmother’s tone and demeanor became weird as the latter’s words sounded strange and despondent.

“Are you in a bad mood? Why don’t you go to bed earlier?”

“Oh, okay.” Jacinta came back to her senses. “I’m indeed in a bad mood because I thought of your mom. Let’s go to bed. You should sleep too.”

“Okay,” Winnie agreed and helped Jacinta to get on the bed.

After lying down, Jacinta soon fell asleep.

Yet, Winnie did not feel sleepy at all.

Everything that happened that day kept replaying in her mind like a movie, but the image that lingered in her mind was Xavier’s red-eyed expression.

D*mn it! Thinking of that, Winnie couldn’t help but curse in her heart.

We’ve divorced. Why do I keep thinking of him? Isn’t it nice to just think of Christopher? He’s masculine, handsome, and has a great body. Besides, he isn’t so strict and doesn’t show that kind of unpleasant possessiveness toward me too.

In the end, Winnie did not know when she had fallen asleep. All she knew was that there were dark circles under her eyes the next day.

After what happened the day before, Hamish directly moved into the company, while Yara moved to another property of the Garland family.
